Peter's Tavern — Restaurant in Stoke-on-Trent

Unfortunately the kitchen is very slow. Waiting for the soup and then quite while for ready meals😳 (We were thinking about cancelling the order as we meant to go to see a football match). Kofola is not on draft, so if you are lucky to get your glass poured from bottle opened previous day, it is definitely not good advertisement for such a drink, because it is flat. Main selling article svíčková was out of stock from previous day as waitress said, so I assume if we ordered svickova it might not been freshly cooked since few days. Who knows🤔. But not having it for saturday lunches seems to be a let down and leads to conclusion if the chef wasn't drinking a bit much on Friday. It would also give a explanation why we waited for ready meals for so long. Reviews were bit worrying but few years old so I wouldn't took them into a consideration but I should. Nothing changed since 4 years back. Soup was ok. Mains... goulash and halusky were really disappointing. Goulash tasted like thing you remember from school canteen and halušky had barely any taste. There is quite difference between bacon and lard (slanina/spek) so if you have bacon on a menu, it shall be bacon not hard lard, but it might be confusion with languages where lard in slovak may mean slanina as it does in polish.🧐 Anyway prices are reasonable if you do not have much flavour expectations. Waitress was nice, but she offered us to split the bill evenly (after she didn't bothered to ask in forward how we would like to pay) in between four, even we had different orders for a different prices, so this didn't seem fair to them who didn't have an alcoholic drinks and starter/soup for example.

I gave 2 stars, but we are not coming back. There are not Czech/Slovak restaurants around but I wouldn't...

I am writing to express my disappointment with our visit tonight. The food was a mess, and we had issues with our order. We requested mayo but never received it, and to add to our frustration, we were charged more than we had calculated after we left. It would have been better to clarify this before we paid.

Additionally, the beer we ordered was flat, which was disappointing. The atmosphere was also quite disruptive, as the waitress at the bar was shouting, making it impossible to relax while eating. I was tempted to say something, but my wife advised against it. To make matters worse, the waitress was using foul language while teaching an English customer inappropriate terms.

Overall, the lack of peace, combined with the poor food quality and service, made for a very unpleasant experience. We spent £40 only to leave with stomach pains and stress. I would not recommend your restaurant to anyone and will not...

I have been going to Peters tavern a few times a year since they've opened. Food was always great as well as the service. It's sad to see this place going in the completely wrong direction. On last two occasions I wasn't very impressed with the food but on our last visit I couldn't believe they served me my favourite dish with knedliky hard as a rock 😿 The taste of the dish wasn't as it use to be I would give it a 4/10. We got our money back but that's not the case when you're starving you're the only person in the restaurant you're waiting 30+ minutes to get food and it's in such a low quality and some uneatable. I'm writing this comment hoping the owner will notice and bring some changes into the business. It was our place to go to when in Hanley unfortunately it won't be anymore unless something's will...
